- Contract change proposed1 Apr 2026, 23:59 BSTThe GMH project strengthens and accelerates the same South African food loss and waste strategy for which Nicola was originally procured; varying the existing contract ensures continuity, value for money and effective project risk management while enabling coherent delivery across the SA FLWI's growing portfolio. The GMH activity is fully aligned with the existing scope and intent of the current Impact Lead contract. The new GMH project: Focuses on preventing and reducing food waste Requires business engagement and buy-in Is delivered through the same South African ood Loss and Waste Initiative Uses the same local delivery partner, CGCSA Requires strategic oversight, coordination, and impact assurance This is not additional unrelated work; it is a new funding stream for the same strategic mission. The Impact Lead's function naturally extends to it. Nicola already has deep knowledge of: The South African food system Food loss and waste drivers The Food Pact structure The local partner's capacity and constraints Established trust with: The local delivery partner Food Pact stakeholders International partners Replacing or duplicating this role would increase cost, delay mobilisation & increase delivery risk. The GMH proposal itself already recognises the Impact Lead role in the cost outline so we are not creating a new position, just assigning it to the existing contracted specialist.
